Summer is Over


Hi, This is Jen from Moishe House Sacramento
My summer break is over and I am back at school. 6 weeks just is not a long enough vacation. Summary of my summer break: (1) Got started on a research project on the outcomes of environmentally methamphetamine-exposed kids. (2) Went on a bunch of backpacking and hiking trips. (3) Got stung by a bee on my foot….twice. Had to take steroids, because the allergic reaction was so bad.

The last weekend before going back to school was great. We took a group of people on a hike to the top of Half Dome in Yosemite. Every person in our group made it up to the top and back down safely. People made some new friends, had a great time, and proved to themselves that they could hike the 4800 feet of elevation gain and the 16 miles round trip. For me, the best part was having my 2 younger sisters and my dad on the trip. It was a good time.
